Interesting Affair Between the Governor
and Senator Brown.
Copyright 1887, dy the California -issociated Press
New, YORK, October 31st.--A. M.-The
4rtbunes Atlanta (Ga.) special says The
Piedmont Exposition and President Cleve-
land fractured the Atlanta ring which had
so long trampled on the Georgians. This
ring was composed of General Gordon, the
present Governor, Senator Joe" Brown,
Senator Colquitt and Henry W. Grady,
who owns fifth of the Atlanta Constitution
and talks about the New South" as ii he
was its chief exponent.
Cleveland had scarcely shaken the red
mud of the Georgian capital from his feet
when Senator Brown rode to the Executive
Mansion, and summoned the Governor to
his presence. Governor, I'm played out
bodily, and must so to the Bermudas for
my health. That. as you may readily I'M
derstand, means my resignation. AS retire
voluntarily from the Senate of the United
States, claim the privilege of naming nv
successor, and am here to-day for the pur-
pose of informing you of my wishes in the
matter"
General Gordon spoke in reply: Who
is your man?''
Henry R. Jackson
1t cannot be-" the Governor replied.
" have another candidate for your office"
And might presume to inquire who
that is ?"
Certainly, Senator 1t is Henry w.
Grady"

heel and strobe out of the room.

lowing day. stopping only at the more i'm
portant stations. Returning it will leave
Ogden at 7:30 A. NJ, arriving in San Fran
cisco the next day at 7:10 P. NJ. This train
will make the trip eastward in 36I hours,
and westward in 36 hours and ten minutes.

will arrive in San Francisco on the second
day at T:40 A. NJ. The time consumed by
this train eastward will be 40 hours and 55
minutes, and westward 45 hours and 40
minutes. By this arrangem ent days time
will be gained in the Transmission of mail
to points beyond Ogden. As all Eastern
mails will be sent on the early train this

Copyright, 1887, by the California associated Press
WASHINGTON, October 3Oth-[Special. T.
The book recently published in Detroit en-
titled, Sew-Saw, or Civil Service in Gov
ernment Departments" was written by
Miss Cynthia Cleveland cousin of the
President and clerk in the Sixth Auditor s
office, at Washington. The principle
characters of the novel are but thinly dis
guised. 1t seems that the villain of the
plot Is really Governor Swineford, of
Alaska, while the other characters also
have their living Representatives among
the public men of this city, and of Michi-
gan and Dakota, where the scene is laid.
The work is anti-biographical in its nature,
and describes how the heroine-who is at
the same time its author-became possessed
of considerable political influence Her
affections were won by Swineford, and she
used all her influence to secure his nomina-
tion to the office of Governor of Alaska,
which he now holds
The book says that charges were made
against the villain of the plot-to the effect
that, while Commissioner to the New Or
leans Exposition his accounts were in a
muddled condition. Miss Cleveland. be-
lleylng that this was entirely due to his un-
0usinessllke management of his affairs
and not to any intentional wrong doing on
his part felt justired in urging his con-
hrmation, Notwithstanding these charges.
AS the result of her efforts, Swineford was
made Governor of Alaska Then he mar
ried some other woman, and sent letter
to Miss Cleveland thanking her for her
efforts in his behalf, and offering to secure
for her testimonials, etc. To this business
like letter she replied in a heart-rending
epistle, which is given almost verbatim in

WASHINGTON, October 30th.-Some weeks
ago the military authorities OF Arizona re-.
ported to the War Department that the
Sheriff of Pima county held warrants. the
legality OF which were questioned, for the
arrest OF E.skimizin and twenty-seven other
Indians living on the San Pedro river. IN
that Territory, upon charges of grand lar
ceny ana resisting arrest, and had called
upon Captain Pierce, the commanding mil
itary officer at San Carlos Agency, who is
also Acting Indian Agent, to aid him in
making the arrests. General Miles, in re
porting the matter to General Howard, ex-
pressed the opinion that the attempted ar
rest OF the twenty-eight Indians by local
civil officers would prove a serious matter
indeed, if II did not involve the Territory
in an Indian war.
The last act of hostility on the part of
the whites was the arrest of six of the In
dians, it is said, upon false charges, and the
attempted arrest of the twenty-eight others
referred to above. The Sheriff of Pima
county has made demand upon Captain
Pierce for the surrender of the accused,
which on October 10th-the date of Cap
tain Pierce's letter of transmittal-h not
been complied with. The Indian officials
pronounce the affair shameful outrage
upon peaceful and law-abiding Indians,
and will take such steps as may be neces
sary to restore to the Indians their aban-
doned property.
